Course you have  :y

You worry too much.


Bolt it back together, but do an oil change after the first start.


I would probably have removed the surface rust with some fine scotchbrite soaked in engine oil, if I bothered at all.

sounds like it was just light surface rust ,
cam.in.head's "simulated the hone pattern by moving the paper up and down as rotating it." :y
the hone just "holds" the oil on the bores

              Yes’s we used a bore Honer  on a drill and it worked perfectly on my Evo you will have to clean your cylinders as you did for another month before it makes the bores even slightly bigger in my opinion👍 you’re fine,  bolt it back together
